GPSPatchCeramic#

class ansys.aedt.toolkits.antenna.backend.antenna_models.custom.GPSPatchCeramic(*args, **kwargs)[source]#

Manages the ACT-derived ceramic GPS patch antenna.

This antenna is modeled after the ACT (ANSYS Customization Toolkit) reference design for a GPS L1-band (1.575 GHz) ceramic patch antenna with a coaxial feed.

Parameters:

*argslist: Positional arguments forwarded to CommonPatch.
**kwargsdict: Keyword arguments forwarded to CommonPatch.

Examples

Create a GPS ceramic patch antenna at the default frequency of 1.575 GHz:

>>> from ansys.aedt.toolkits.antenna.backend.antenna_models.custom import GPSPatchCeramic
>>> antenna = GPSPatchCeramic()
